Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.
Any pain & swelling in a joint of long standing duration needs an evaluation to know the diagnosis.
An MRI scan is necessary to know the specific pathology inside the ankle joint.
I suggest you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for further workup and management.
Hope this information is helpful. Good day
